Breaks+Lunch at work

DJohnson · 08-15-2006, 03:59 PM

I'm curious.
For your work post:

1. What time work day starts.
2. What time your work day ends.
3. How many breaks you get and how long they are (if any).
4. How long your lunch is.
5. If your breaks+lunch are paid or unpaid time.

AYung · 08-15-2006, 04:16 PM

1. Almost always different, scheduled is posted ahead of time for the week.
2. Same as above. Usually anywhere from 5-8 hours of starting.
3. 15 minute break for 4 hour shift, 30 minute break for 5,6, or 7 hour shift, and 15 and 30 minute break for 8 hour shirt.
4. There is no lunch, just breaks.
5. Unpaid.

1. 6:30am
2. 4:30pm
3. I really only get 1 break lasting 30 min and it doubles as my lunch.
4. I am salaried.

I make food before I go to work, and am able to eat every 2 hours. I make sure to let everyone know in the beginning that I have an "eating condition" requiring me to eat constantly. Due to employment laws, they tend to leave me be and let me bang our my shakes with rice as often as I want.

**Jayelin** · 08-15-2006, 05:05 PM

1. 9am
2. 5pm technically, but, it's really whenever dad lets me escape
(generally >5:30pm)
3. Breaks? If it's dead I'll surf the net, I'm generally doing busy work if it's slow though.
4. I eat at my desk.
5. I'm commission only, so everything is unpaid but what I sell.

I have a union job.

Start time is presently 11:00 pm
End time is 7:00 am

On the night shifts all we get is two 15 minute breaks that are paid and we always take them consecutively for a single 30 minute break.
